The Promise Poem by shilpi saxena

The Promise

Rating: 4.8


When I was a little wench,
I thought the world is all fair.
Everybody is ready to help others,
No sadness, no tear.

When I became some old,
I feel something wrong.
Everyone is busy in themselves,
They only sing a selfish song.

Now I am living in my present age,
The ancient thoughts were arising.
But suddenly I found a shining star*
That is u, who are so inspiring.

Thou alters my views,
You show me the reality.
Now I believe there is someone,
Who ever takes care of me.

O! u are my peculiar friend,
Came into my life as a miracle.
Just like me you were also alone,
But now we are Friends Forever.

We will surely touch the welkin,
If we neglect the trifling things.
I Promise ever truthful to u and
Promise me to do the same everlasting.

So you wish to become am English lit. Prof.? I really don't get any pleasure telling you that first you better concentrate on syntax and grammar, very much I'm afraid. In your poem-just to point out a single item-you changed tenses twice in the first 2 lines. You have to learn consistency in that regard: it is quite important. Also, simply by meaning well does not a good poem make. Read, read, read, the greatest poets before beginning to write. I spent many years in the library reading hundreds of anthologies and individual compilations before I thought I could even begin without avoiding pretension.
